målingers

Målingers is the genitive plural form of måling, a Norwegian noun meaning measurement or the act of measuring. Måling can refer to the process of obtaining a quantitative value through observation, or to the resulting value itself, i.e., a measurement. The term is used across science, engineering, statistics, and everyday contexts where quantities are determined.

In Norwegian, the plural indefinite is målinger, and the definite plural is målingene. The possessive or genitive plural, used to indicate ownership or association with multiple measurements, is målingers. The use of målingers is common in formal or technical writing when describing properties, results, or characteristics pertaining to several measurements. Usage can vary with style guides and dialects.

Applications of måling involve metrology, quality control, experimental science, and data analysis. Measurements underpin data collection, calibration, uncertainty estimation, and traceability to standards. Measurement procedures aim to minimize systematic and random errors, document conditions and units, and ensure consistency across instruments.

In modern practice, measurement and its language are linked to international standards and guidelines for metrology, which emphasize traceability, calibration, and uncertainty evaluation. The term målingers appears mainly in Norwegian-language texts and is typically encountered in discussions about multiple measurements or the relationship between several measurements and a related quantity.
